  1. The Samp-T delivered to Ukraine are Italian only.

  2.  @BS-vm5bt  The problem of European standardization is that what's standardizated is anyway a product of a national manufacturer, that so is going to profit from it, while all the other countries pay. So, are we going to standardize the H&K 416, the FN Scar or the Beretta ARX 160? The jet trainer is going to be the Leonardo M346 or the Alpha Jet?

  3.  @BS-vm5bt  I didn't say it's right, but that's how it is. Collaborations tipically only cover from two to four countries. Airbus is French-German-Spanish, is not Italian, Polish, Greek, or of other 21 members of the EU, so, for them, to buy Airbus products is financing France, Germany and Spain, in exchange of what? EMBT is French-German, not of other 25 EU members. Why the Poles should finance Germany and France instead of the US or Korea? The Eurofighter (British German, Italian, Spanish) had a French Competitor. Why, say, the Dutch should favor the Eurofighter in respect of the Rafale or the F16? The French-Italian FREMM have Spanish and German competiors. Etc. What if the collaboration project did born as a competitor of an already existing European product? The Eurocopter Tiger was made by Airbus Elicopter when the Agusta A129 Mangusta already existed. If French, Germans and Spaniards dont' want to give their money to an Italian company, why should Italy buy a German tank?
